Be more out-going & less shy

when i was high on drugs or drunk i would talk 2 anybody… now i’m clean n sober i’m finding it very hard 2 speak 2 people. i’ve set myself a goal: 2 speak 2 at least 1 other person while waiting 4 a bus or while on the bus…
the biggest problem i’m having is getting what i want in bed! i kinda say what i like then that’s it i don’t follow it up. this is the next thing i’ve got 2 practice…

Able 2 act with strangers more or less the same as I act with my friends/acquaintances.
When I end up talking 2 strangers I start off pretty confidently but after a while I turn into a gibbering wreck. My pulse starts racing; I start perspiring n worse of all I get my words mixed up!
I have started challenging this by striking up conversations at the bus stop. This is (hopefully) short-lived n I ought 2 do it more than I am (only once or twice a wk at mo) so that’s my new challenge: 2 talk 2 at least 10 strangers in a wk! We’ll see how I do.

be less shy. be more confident. be more open. be less quiet. be more “bubbly”. be less of an introvert. loose some inhibitions. and be more social… easy…not! i’ll get back 2 you on my progress!
